Her gift is an inconvenient curse

Maggie Kovacs has had a lot on her plate since her father was killed, not unexpectedly, in an airplane explosion. The last thing she needs is to add more to it but horrific dreams have driven her to confide in an old friend who is persistently suggesting that Maggie tell her supervisor, Detective Sergeant Max Strachan. Max has heard of Maggie's "gift", which allows her to see things but he's not about to be suckered by a beautiful face. But when Maggie's dreams end up coming true, Max finds himself unable to fall back on his bitter cynicism. Debut author Frances Housden is off to a fantastic start with "The Man For Maggie." Her incredible talent is illustrated by her wonderful weaving of plots, however convoluted, and keen edge of suspense which makes this book impossible to put down. Aside from the execution of her intriguing plot, Housden also engages her audience with the development of Maggie and Max's evolving love for each other. Maggie is a strong-willed heroine whose prejudice against cops equals Max's personal resentment towards the supernatural. But in the face of Maggie's evidence, Max becomes a true hero because his mind and heart are open to who and what she is and the strong bond between them.
